Today was the second day of the George Tormey Challenge. Racing through a course by yourself is one thing, but when someone is next to you racing, it takes things to another level. It pushes you because you can see if you are winning or losing. I had a great time watching this head-to-head competition.
Tomorrow, we plan to have top-to-bottom skiing and riding on all 3 mountains with 6 lifts operating, including the Madonna I Lift. We have 69 trails open with terrain for all ability levels. 33 trails will be groomed for tomorrow, including Hibernator, Smugglers’ Alley, and skier’s right on Upper FIS for a total of 127 acres of freshly groomed terrain. Surface conditions are machine-groomed and variable, with average base depths of 10 to 36 inches. We received 2 to 4 inches of new snow on top in the past 24 hours. Currently, it is partly sunny and 30 degrees at the summit of Sterling with winds of 0 to 5 mph. Tomorrow’s forecast is calling for snow showers 1 to 3 inches of accumulation possible with a high of 33 degrees at the base and 23 degrees at higher elevations. We have colder temperatures forecasted for the upcoming week.
